“I just asked our finance department. After Marlin’s accident, the law ruled that it had nothing to do with the Torres Corporation, but I still asked someone to give your family three million dollars as compensation.”

Three million. Although it couldn’t bring Marlin back to life, it was Franklin’s best wishes. He hoped that Marlin’s family could live a stable life.

But from the looks of it, that wasn’t the case.

Their living environment didn’t look like they had received the three million at all.

“What three million?! “Back then, we only received 30,000. We used it to settle my husband’s funeral, and then there wasn’t any money left! We didn’t have the money to find a lawyer… Later, I went back to the Torres Corporation a few times. They all said that the CEO was busy and disappeared! All of you are a bunch of people who eat human flesh and drink human blood!”

As if recalling the tragic memories from three years ago, Zelda covered her face and cried. Soon, she raised her head again.

“All these years, without Marlin, I have always been the only one supporting this family. I can only go home once a year. Even for Xander’s birthday, I can’t go back to spend it with her…”

[ System Divine Nine: I understand. It’s because of the money. Zelda only received 30,000 dollars for the three million compensation. All these years, it must’ve been tough on her. Although the Torres Corporation doesn’t have to take full responsibility for Marlin’s death, Zelda must have held a grudge against the Torres Corporation. ]

“Back then, I was very sure that I had someone allocate the three million dollars. The Torres Corporation’s account clearly stated that the money had been withdrawn.”

If Zelda had only received thirty thousand Yuan, then the rest of the money had been embezzled.

Franklin immediately called someone to find out who had handled the money back then. He also showed the Torres Corporation’s transfer certificate to her.

“Regarding Marlin’s death, we are very sorry, but I have already done what I could. Now, it seems that someone must have taken a cut of the money, so in the end, you only had thirty thousand.”

People were panicking because of the silver pieces. However, the silver pieces could solve all kinds of panics.

At this point, Franklin also sighed lightly.

“So, Zelda, is this the reason why you let your husband’s ghost harm your brother?” Lauren finally began. Unlike her usual coquettish tone, she was now very serious.

After listening to Franklin’s explanation and looking at the transfer certificate, Zelda’s aura weakened a little.
